On November 1, 1997, Sri Lanka delivered a commanding performance against the West Indies in the Wills Quadrangular Tournament at Lahore. Their seven-wicket victory, achieved with over 10 overs to spare, was highlighted by a record-breaking 171-run unbeaten stand between Roshan Mahanama and Arjuna Ranatunga for the fourth wicket. Chasing 240, Mahanama’s classy 94 (112 balls) and Ranatunga’s authoritative 87 (90 balls) guided Sri Lanka to a comfortable win. Both batsmen missed out on centuries only due to the modest target. Earlier, the West Indies had a strong start with Brian Lara (82), Shivnarine Chanderpaul, and Carl Hooper contributing, but Chaminda Vaas sparked a collapse by claiming his 100th ODI wicket.
